man, was it you
who lurked by the barn
as I whiffed
the early morning
spring tulips
& saw the
black gander
fall through
air
& dive
down
into the water
& clutch
the weeds
at the bottom
& stay there

under falling water
lies a bird
with a broken wing.
near a lake
that is blue
from a sky
that is blue.
on a green bed
it flops
& seeks the source
of the rain;
into the rain
it flops
seeking the source.
other birds
pay no attention
